Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated lymphoma may arise secondary to angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). The prognosis is poor despite chemotherapy and experimental therapies. We report on a 40-year-old woman with AITL without obvious immunodeficiency in which EBV-associated lymphoma developed. The occurrence and size of enlarged lymph nodes correlated strongly with the EBV load in serum ...

Approximately 8,200 new cases of Hodgkin lymphoma are diagnosed annually in the United States. Common presenting features include painless lymphadenopathy (usually above the diaphragm), cough, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. To decrease late complications, treatment has gradually evolved toward shorter-duration chemotherapy with use of lower-dose, shorter-duration radiation therapy. ABVD ...

Although follicular lymphoma remains incurable, recent advances in first-line therapy have resulted in improved response rates and response duration. Maintenance therapy with rituximab (Rituxan) after induction treatment with rituximab alone or chemotherapy in combination with or without rituximab has resulted in further improvement in progression-free survival in both treatment-naive and previ...

BACKGROUND Epigenetic code modifications by histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) have been proposed as potential new therapies for lymphoid malignancies. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of aggressive lymphoma for which standard first line treatment is the chemotherapy regimen CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone) combined with the monoc...

Primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (PCDLBCL-LT), is a rare and aggressive variant of extranodal lymphoma. We report the case 64-year-old woman with unilateral lymphedema lower limb as first only symptom PCDLBCL-LT for six months. Violaceous nodules were second they progressively developed on edematous calf. Initially, diagnosed warty overgrowths, which are common skin cha...

Vitreoretinal lymphoma (VRL) is a rare variant of primary central nervous system (PCNSL), mostly diffuse large B cell lymphoma, which affects the retina and/or vitreous with or without optic nerve involvement. The disease course aggressive. Up to 90% patients develop within one year. diagnosis VRL challenging due nonspecific chronic and relapsing uveitis made by anterior chamber tab aspirate bi...
